Solid instrument for ambitious amateurs

Andreas J., 03.09.2012

Since 15 years I play in a wind orchestra on a Yamaha PC-32 with nickel silver head piece and plastic body. This piccolo has survived countless rifle festivals and carnival appearances, despite not always gentle treatment. After a general overhaul last year, she plays again as new. A cheap piccolo bought for fun for EUR 100 did not even get a taste! However, the dynamic and tonal possibilities of a plastic flute are quite limited, so I have now joined the Yamaha PC-62 for the concert area. With it it is possible to play also pianissimo as well as in solitary passages to produce a nice, warm sound. The main problem of Piccolo, the intonation, is also more controllable with such a woodwind. However, I would not consider the instrument, as Yamaha describes it on its homepage, as a professional instrument. In direct comparison with a Philip Hammig borrowed from a colleague, you notice the difference to a real professional instrument, which then also costs the two to three times (and only worthwhile if you practice every day at least three hours on it ;-)

Shortly after my purchase came from Yamaha the same flute with reform mouthpiece on the market. I would recommend to anyone to try out, which version is better. It is also not unusual to combine the Yamaha PC-62 with high-quality mouthpieces from other companies. I am, however, satisfied with the standard mouthpiece so far.

Altogether you get (as almost always with Yamaha) a solid instrument at an unbeatable price-performance ratio.

A very good instrument

Banda de Santa Margalida, 07.07.2013

Buy this pic to be played by one of the band's flutists and I'm really happy with the purchase. It is an instrument that, compared to other makes and models, it is relatively easy to make it sound what avoids the frustration that some amateur instrumentalists may have when they first switch from flute to piccolo.
